Struggle in Russia

【Struggle in Tsarist Russia】 【】

St. Petersburg has not been so lively for a long time. The last time there were so many melons to eat dates back to more than thirty years ago when Alexander I had his braids.

Compared with the time when rumors spread and war broke out, the melons now are obviously more delicious, at least they don't taste dangerous at all.

"I never expected that Prince Baryatinsky would be such a person. I thought he was a gentleman!"

"A gentleman? There are a few decent men in the officialdom. Are you kidding me! I'm not surprised at all by what he did. The world is as black as crows!"

"That's right, that's right, if you had the opportunity like him, I think you would be even darker than him!"

"It's not surprising to you at all. Prince Baryatinsky is a popular figure around His Majesty. Who dares to cause trouble with him? I tell you, the water here is deep! Maybe there is something else going on. Where is my son!"

"What's the matter? It's probably because some people are jealous of his position. It was the same with Count Speransky back then. When he wasn't on stage, many people liked him and supported him, but what happened after he came to stage? Thousands of people rode on him and tens of thousands of people stepped on him. Being treated like a human being inside and out, it’s all the same, who can see the good of others!”

"It's not that simple! Don't you think there are too many things going on recently? First something happened to Grand Duke Constantine, and then Duke Baryatinsky also happened to have something happen to him. How could there be such a coincidence!"

"That's true, you think, could it be that the reformists and the conservatives are at each other's throats? The conservatives are attacking Grand Duke Constantine, and the reformists are fighting back to disgrace Prince Baryatinsky."

In the end, this possibility was unanimously pursued, and the melon-eating people who did not know the truth unanimously believed that this was the truth of the matter and were worried about it!

They are afraid that the reformists and conservatives will get more and more angry and end up causing a Decembrist farce.

"Are they blind? What are they analyzing! Even conservatives attack Grand Duke Constantine. Can't they see that it is the conservatives who support Grand Duke Constantine!"

Boris vomited while drinking: "Even I can see things, but the high-ranking nobles of St. Petersburg can't? It seems that they are just like that!"

Li Xiao, Vishniak and Alexei looked at each other and said nothing. Do the nobles of St. Petersburg really not understand?

Not sure, I'm afraid many people are deliberately pretending not to understand. Because little people who are too smart usually don't end well. If you want to live a long time, you have to pretend to be stupid!

As for Boris, he really doesn't understand. He is a good person in leading troops to fight and charge into battle, but he really doesn't understand things in the officialdom. He felt that he was better than the nobles of St. Petersburg simply because he stood on the shoulders of Li Xiao and others. Li Xiao and others had explained the matter clearly. If he didn't understand, he would be so confused!

But one good thing about Boris is that he only ridicules and mocks the high-ranking nobles of St. Petersburg. In fact, he is like a mirror in his heart. Until he has a few pounds, he will not really think that he is smarter than them.

Li Xiao and the others also know this. Since Boris is self-aware, why bother spoiling his interest? Let him enjoy his oral pleasure!

After Boris had finished his addiction, Alexey asked: "What will His Majesty and Grand Constantine do next?"

Vishniak and Boris looked at Li Xiao together, and they also wanted to know what would happen next.

Li Xiao did not sell out: "Your Majesty will never give up on Baryatinsky, and will definitely try every means to clear his name. The battle around Baryatinsky will continue, but to be honest, that is not the point. The point is still the St. Petersburg Superior Court. When will the trial be held and when will the verdict be pronounced!”

Everyone nodded together. In the final analysis, making Baryatinsky look bad was just a cover-up. The key was still a matter of time.

If the reformists can seize the time to implement various reform policies in Ukraine, then it won't matter even if they lose the battle with the higher court in the end.

Because it is impossible to win a lawsuit in a superior court. No judge would have the courage to slap Alexander II in the face at this moment. The consequences would be too serious!

The problem lies in how the Ukrainian reform pilot can be implemented quickly. Although Alexander II has already made a decree, he also selected Prince Mikhail Gorchakov as the new Governor-General of Ukraine.

But everyone can see that his words were insincere and perfunctory. He neither gave money nor specified how to pilot the reform. The appointed governor has been sitting in St. Petersburg recuperating. There is no hint of reform in this?

"Didn't Count Nikolai Milyutin think of ways to promote Ukraine?" Vishnyak asked.

Li Xiao sighed and said: "Of course he is going all out, but you should know those bureaucrats. They have always had opinions on the reform, and now the situation is anxious. How can they honestly promote this matter at this time? Every one of them It’s just perfunctory and procrastinating, just waiting for the conclusion of Archduke Constantine’s case!”

Alexey also added: "I have a deep understanding of this. When I first arrived at the Ministry of Justice, I found that the guys in the Department of Law were secretly gossiping and had already linked up. They didn't care about any legal provisions involving reform in the near future. How long can it be delayed? Just wait as long as it takes.”

Vishniak and Boris looked at Li Xiao together, wanting to ask what was obvious.

Li Xiao said: "Count Nikolay Milutin went to negotiate with Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com, but it was of little use. Those bureaucrats may not be good at doing things, but they are good at delaying time with official talk, and they understand the provisions one by one. Eat them clearly so that you can’t catch their faults!”

Boris suddenly became anxious: "What should we do, just let them be arrogant?"

Li Xiao smiled and said: "Of course it's impossible, that's why Alexei joined the Ministry of Justice! What do you think he was asked to do?"

Boris blurted out: "I thought I was really promoting Alyosha, but it turned out that he was asked to do hard work! This is too cheating!"

Alexey touched his nose and looked helpless, which made Boris sympathize with him even more.

But Boris didn't think of Li Xiao, but he didn't think it was a hard job: "Alyosha's job is indeed difficult, but only when the difficult jobs are done can you show your ability! This is a good opportunity. If Alyosha can It will be a great achievement to solve the problem of those bureaucrats pushing for the implementation of the reform bill. Then who will dare to say that he is not doing things well with his talk?"

Boris blinked and then came back to his senses: "But it's not easy to do, isn't it?"

Li Xiao snorted: "If we do well, it won't be our turn! Do you think the reformist upper class is much better than the conservative old guys? They are not just as stubborn. If they don't show results, do you think they will give it to them?" How much support do we have?”
